Been listening to weird hardcore/crossover/blitzkrieg thrash kind of music

massgrav is pretty fun, albeit repetitive, especially when you really like a song but its like 32 seconds long.

http://www.myspace.com/massgrav

also I love the Japanese scene, its like they filtered all the bad things with whats wrong with hardcore/punk/thrash these days, took a bunch of adderall and just made album after great album after great album. Just non stop, full of energy, minimal breakdowns and FUN. Been to a few shows (idol punch, gently caress you heroes, breakfast, razors edge etc etc) and the way the band moves instead of looking bored on stage and just trying to get through the set is refreshing from the music scene here in Boston

here are some myspaces, I know that people will put down the music, scoff at that weird vocals and I don't mind that, sometimes the bands I list is not everyone's cut of tea. Just look out there, if you're bored search through friends list, some really great bands there.

Wow, I really have to start paying attention to the Japanese scene. There's so much loving energy. I really couldn't get into massgrav, but the other bands you mentioned are great, especially Razors Edge.

yea should have mentioned massgrav is from Sweden, not Japanese

Razors edge is great stuff, jellyroll rockheads was the lead singers side project before he got deep into rezors edge, you can see influences from that band, razors edge just has better technique, jellyroll rockheads is just raw energy.

For albums I'd suggest thrash em all and sweet ten thrashers, the latter is a collection of their best songs

what do you mean "yea i know"? rockheads loving rule.

check out paintbox, gently caress on the beach, breakfast, sheeeps, judgement, death side, systematic death and forward. so much amazing punk and hardcore has been coming out of japan since the eighties.
Yea all those bands kickass

"the i know" comment is for the ridiculous name.

There have been many a times where I would mention that band and just get stares

I'm currently digging breakfast (all their stuff is great and such a wide range too), gently caress you heroes and idol punch the most right now.


If you like horrorpunk like stuff check out balzac, pretty fun the first few listens too

if you want something more "american hardcore" influenced check out fc five, I didn't dig their cd (recording felt too bland) but there a few gems between cds and their lives are pretty awesome.
